YoutubeReviews of tv.youtube.com

The programs and selection for our wants are perfect but, the platform itself is terrible. It frequently buffers and freezes. So annoying. Plus it is annoying when they give you a laundry list of what is wrong other than their inferior platform. We have Disney +, Max, Apple TV and Prime and NEVER have an issue with those. BTW, our internet speed is 400mps. We are currently researching our options and will gladly switch when we settle on one. Also, date of experience? Can't narrow it down to one day Trustpilot.

If I could give zero stars, I would. We did a free trial, decided it was nice but not for right now, maybe another time. Ended the trial during the period. They charged us the following 2 months even though we cancelled within the timeframe. Talking to customer service has been no help at all, we had to get our credit card company involved. It still isn’t resolved 5 calls later. Even reaching them is impossible. I will NEVER go back to YouTubeTV and will warn everyone who asks.

My subscription lasted about one hour due to the difficulty in signing on and then finding out that I did not get the free trial or the reduced rate and apparently no refund since one paid your money will not be refunded even if you cancel in less than a day.

They keep raising their prices but they still have the money to sponsor the NBA Finals. I'm sure most of their subscribers pay for that. That's only one of the reason I dropped these clowns.

Tv.youtube.com is terrible. It puts ads in everywhere its greedy overlords demand, even when you try to fast forward on recorded content. Very disappointed with the service, you are held captive too frequently. And, its expensive for what it is. I have had their service for over 20 months, no more!

Hulu was getting too expensive, so I thought I would give Youtube TV a try. They had a 21 day free trial, but after a day I decided I didn't like it, so I cancelled via Google subscriptions. 21 days later my credit card was billed for $63.80. I tried to contact customer service, but the only phone number is answered by an AI app that keeps repeating the same questions. I eventually logged a dispute with my credit card and they have temporarily removed the charge. I did find a Google website where you can file for unauthorized charges, but after a week, I haven't got a response. I have also removed all my credit card info from Google subscriptions hoping they won't try charging me in the future. Update. I received a reply stating they have declined my dispute, but not giving a reason, so I filed another complaint saying the fraudulent party was them. I also contacted my credit card requesting that Google and YouTube is a fraudulent company and barring them from charging my credit card for the next 5 years. This was to prevent them from billing me next month. I also removed my card data from Google Pay, but they keep putting it back in. I'm thinking this could be a class action law suit against Google.

I have been trying to cancel my “30-day” trial since 3/3/2025 - 3 days after signing up. Every device I use says I don’t have an account, so I can’t use their cancellation instructions. Their phone number says “we are having difficulties with our phones, but our best techs are working on it.” No phones for months! Plus they started billing me after 20 days, not 30. I have to dispute the charge EVERY MONTH. Save yourself. Don’t sign up. Who would think Google needs to steal from people? Apparently, that is the business model.

The platform itself is a disaster. I have chromecast with google tv, PS5 and a bluray player, all with the Youtube TV app. ALL of them constantly freeze or buffer on my home network. My network is not the problem. On these same devices, Paramount+, Hulu, Peacock, ESPN+ all work without issue. The poor functionality led me to cancel the service 4-5 MONTHS ago. Without warning or authorization, they unilaterally decided to reactivate the account and charged me $73 today. Shady business practice for a trash platform.
